Reel Screamer - 31 Bertram Overview

The Reel Screamer, a 31-foot Bertram sport fishing vessel, will have you yelling for joy after you hook one of the incredible deep sea species that inhabit the fantastic Caribbean waters of this region. Our experienced charter staff knows where to troll for species like wahoo, dorado, as well as varieties of billfish and tuna. After taking into account the various conditions, including weather, tides, currents, recent activity and season, your fishing guide will lead you to the best possible spots to fish on the day on your private charter. You can bring along up to seven of your friends to fish on this roomy craft. The Reel Screamer is stocked with only tourney-grade gear to assist you in hooking that prized pelagic fish.

The best season to visit this vacation destination for billfish is from March until late summer, when species like sailfish, blue marlin, and white marlin hit their peaks, but no matter when you visit Cancun, Cozumel, Riviera Maya, or Playa Del Carmen, you are sure to enjoy some quality fishing.

Dorado, also known as dolphin fish or mahi mahi, also become active around the same time as billfish. The run for these colorful game fish begins a month earlier (February) and usually ends by the close of August. Wahoo, on the other hand, typically are the most active during the off-season for billfish. Barracuda are plentiful throughout the year. Light tackle prey like snapper and grouper can also be caught at any time of the year. So no matter when you vacation in this region, there's always ample sport-fish to hunt in the bountiful fishing grounds off the Yucatan Peninsula.
